Marking Malaria Awareness Day
Did you know . . .
--In a phenomenon known as "airport malaria," infected
mosquitoes can be transported to the U.S. by aircraft coming
from malaria-endemic countries?
--Malaria is the single most infectious disease threat to U.S.
troops worldwide?
--Malaria is the biggest killer of children under the age of
five in Africa?
Wednesday, April 25th, is the first ever U.S. Malaria Awareness
Day. Health leaders around the country and the world are
recognizing this day in conjunction with Africa Malaria Day.
